Hi Gaelyn...Thanks Regina, have a blessed weekend. <br /><br />Hi Gaelyn, your photo of the lightning inspired me to look in my West African photo archives for this one!<br /><br />Hi Loran;)it's strange, we have HUGE electric summer storms here in the highlands of the Free State. But because I live in town, I've not captured any strikes here either. There in Guinea, my house faced out onto the African bush with a little hill in the background so this was conducive to getting many sky shots. Thanks for visiting. (((Hugs))) <br /><br />Thanks JBar;) I popped onto your SkyWatch post and WOW, what a building. I encourage anyone reading these comments to visit JBar's site. Awesome. <br /><br />Hi LinneaW;) good to see you again. <br /><br />Hi Barbara;) thanks for visiting.<br /><br />Hi diane;) you should get some good shots with the great Australian sky... Thanks for visiting. <br /><br />Hi lazyclick: welcome to my blog.<br /><br />Hi Pam;) I've visited your blog often but not sure whether I've commented. Off to see you now. Thanks for visiting me. Have you gone through your photos to check if you perhaps did manage to capture a good shot? That's what happened here. I had many photos and only this one was "real" <br /><br />Hi Sunny, always good to see you. I'll pop in for a visit sometime later this morning. Ain't blogging fun? I can pop over to Australia, France, the US at the click of a button and visit any of you and you can come and visit me anytime you wish here in beautiful South Africa. (((Hugs))) <br /><br />Hi VioletSky: welcome to my blog. Uh-oh, the passport saga. I still have some arrangements to make and then I believe I'll be off to visit my husband in the Sudan. I'll be blogging from there as soon as I land! Off to visit your blog. <br /><br />Thanks ReaderWil I love your posts too.<br /><br />Hi Gattina;) yes, that's photography all about opportunity and the right moment...Thanks for visiting.<br /><br />Hi Babooshka;) thanks for your comment!<br /><br />Hi Pat;) yes, the sky was a special colour that evening. Thanks for commenting. <br /><br />itsnotjustapicture;) thanks for popping in. I trust you're having a wonderful weekend. <br /><br />Hi Janie;) thanks for your kind comment.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11666316882168582862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617652323643666421.post-17019314602673846022009-08-08T09:52:54.994+02:002009-08-08T09:52:54.994+02:00Jo, this is a really beautiful capture, even once ...Jo, this is a really beautiful capture, even once in a lifetime, a success is a success!Arijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720793296992474762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617652323643666421.post-53297318199901461662009-08-08T01:36:51.872+02:002009-08-08T01:36:51.872+02:00Great lightning photo.
